Download Excerpt of Newest Disney Book

By | Published February 27, 2013

If you’re looking to explore the Magic Kingdom beyond the ubiquitous hot dog stands and turkey legs, look no further.

The Thinking Fan’s Guide to Walt Disney World: The Magic Kingdom by Aaron Wallace is not your typical guidebook. The operative word here is thinking. And that goes beyond analyzing ticket options, rigid scheduling, and the need to frantically see everything.

Wallace explores the heart of the Disney experience, providing a lighthearted, but scholarly look at the history, lore, and literature behind the designs and storylines of every ride and attraction in the Magic Kingdom. He offers surprising insights into favorite attractions – the end result is a richer experience for newbies and dedicated park-goers alike.

Already those who have read the excerpt are praising it. Says one “thinking fan”: “They present thorough and well-versed analyses of two attractions, while also addressing their historical significance. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the book as required reading in a college course that specializes in deconstructing Disney.”

Once you’ve read the excerpt, order the book and see how WDW can be appreciated as the Imagineers intended it to be – as a work of art, not just a theme park.
